Answer: Codominence
Explanation:
Codominence is a condition in which two alleles of the same gene are expressed equally. Both alleles are capable of exerting their effects on the organism. Thus instead of expression of one trait both traits are expressed.
Answer: Gastrocnemius, soleus, and Achilles tendon
Explanation:
The heel cord or achilles tendon is also known as calcaneal tendon is found at the back of the leg and is known to be the thickest bone in the human body.
It is attached to the plantaris, calf muscles (gastrocnemius) and soleus muscles. A person who wears heels regularly for a longer period of time suffers from pain and inflammation in muscles of leg.
These muscles helps in the walking and other movements of the legs. Wearing heals and walking is quite painful.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
A glucose molecule enters glycolysis in the cytoplasm of the cell. The glycolytic reactions break down one molecule of glucose into two molecules of pyruvate. Each of the pyruvate molecules is then decarboxylated and is oxidized into acetyl CoA. Acetyl CoA enters Kreb's cycle. Acetyl CoA is completely broken down into CO2 and H2O in Kreb's cycle. In this way, glycolysis and Kreb's cycle break down the glucose molecule into CO2 and H2O in a stepwise manner.
Answer:
sarcoplasmic reticulum deteriorates and ATP production is stopped
Explanation:
Rigor mortis is the third stage of death characterized by stiffening of joints and muscles in body. The stiffening occurs because muscles are not able to return to the relaxed state. There are two reasons for rigor mortis, depletion of ATP and increase in calcium concentration in cytosol. Due to these factors the actin-myosin crossbridge is not able to break and the muscles remain in contracted state.
Sarcoplasmic reticulum deteriorates and calcium is released into the cytosol. Sarcolemma ( covering of muscle fiber ) also breaks down releasing extra calcium into the cytosol. Calcium is responsible for formation of actin-myosin cross bridge and when its concentration increases the bridge is formed continuously leading to stiffening of muscles and joints.
Answer:
Venus flytrap communicate with other organisms by secreting a sugary substance (nectar) in its leaf glands.
Explanation:
The Venus flytrap is a carnivorous plant that traps insects in a plant structure that closes when the small hairs on the inside of the structure are touched.
The leaf of this plant contains a watery fluid secreted by glands on its open traps. Organisms like flies are attracted to the secreted nectar and perches on it; only for the hairs of the flytrap to get shut due to that touch and cell expansion triggered.
